  • Tampa’s Where my Heart Is -Neighborhood Photographer

    Our second series in our Twelve by Twelve Project is the topic “Home is Where the Heart Is.”

    Chris and I have been looking at purchasing a new home either in the Tampa or Palm Harbor area so this topic was perfect for me this month. We truly want to make our first home a place of comfort, to make it our own. We have a few “must have’s” that we require. One, being a pool because I LOVE to relax and sun next to the water. I grew up with a pool and the last three years of not having even a community pool has been torture. I don’t always have the time to pack up and go to the beach so to be able to go in my backyard and relieve some stress for 30 minutes will more than suffice.Photo of loft on second floor

  • Hudas Family Photography at Fred Howard Park in Tarpon Springs Florida

    The Hudas Family drove all the way from Brooksville to meet me in Tarpon Springs at their Spring Beach Family Photography session with me. The sunset went down quickly but it was absolutely beautiful for their family photographs. I love the beautiful blue and coral color scheme they chose.

  • Twin Sisters and Cousins Tampa leading Photographer

  • The S Family – Phillipe Park {Tampa Bay Family Photographer}

    The ‘S’ Family

    The S Family at Phillipe Park in Safety Harbor
    Family Photography by Ashley Yvonne Photography

    I met with this family at Phillipe Park in Safety Harbor on a hot, hot day! Regardless of the temperature, I was AMAZED to see mother Jenni running around after her little girls with a smile on her face and energy radiating from her. I know many, many great mothers and she is the description of a great mother. (Yes, I’m sure if you go to Urban Dictionary you’ll see her name under Great Mother!) Dad thank you for being such a great sport and roughing it out with us in the heat!! You are definitely smitten on your little girls!

    I had a wonderful time getting to know this family of four. Thank you as well to baby sitter, whose name has escaped me! You were a HUGE help and they obviously love you to pieces as are evident in the smiles on their faces.

  • Inspirational Speech from a Famous Actor {Advice for Our Kids}

    I didn’t watch the Teen Choice Awards but recently stumbled across this video of Chris “Ashton” Kutcher, he revealed his real name in hopes of connecting with the young audience in attendance and those watching. This was such an inspiration to not only young children that aspire to be like him, but ones like me as well.

    Our kids have so many influences around them both good and bad. We try everything we can to let them see the good and hope they aspire to be “good” in every way. Most of the time we don’t have control over what they take in but I believe messages like these can help them see that even a famous actor is a real person, who has real problems and who has real emotions. He too once worked at a grocery store and outside in the hot sun. He started from the bottom and worked his way to where he wanted to be.

    As for adults, sometimes life can get rough and tough and in the business world alone, you feel like running a Small Business can be such a complicated task. He took a piece of Steve Jobs from a recent movie he was working on and said this, “Everything around us that we call life was made up of people that are no smarter than you,” he said. “And you can build your own things, you can build your own life that other people can live in. So build a life — don’t live one, build one.” Its nice to be reminded of things like this because we can feel like we aren’t as good as other people may be. Hearing something like this is inspiration to keep going and get to where I want to be. I want to build my small business into a successful Tampa Bay Photography Studio.
